Hi all, do you know if a  complete reference guide to FrameMaker 12 does exist ? I have look for it in the web but I didn't find any. Thanks for your help.

Best Regards

FrameMaker 12 is a rich and complex product. There is no single complete reference guide; such a book would be thousands of pages long:

  • Start with the User Guide and online help.
  • If you're using structure, read the Structure Developers Guide and the Structure Developers Reference.
  • If you're writing scripts, read the Scripting Guide and the JavaScript Tools Guide.
  • If you're using the FDK (FrameMaker Developers Kit) to write plugins, read the FDK Programmers Guide and the FDK Reference Guide.

There's lots more besides the above. For a good index of available documents, see this web page:

It covers both Adobe and third party documentation.
